Letters: The anti-Norquist pledge drive

I have a modest proposal to help the country avoid the fiscal cliff. Echoing Ronald Reagan's call to Mikhail Gorbachev:

"Tear up the pledge, Grover Norquist, tear up the pledge. The world has changed. America is in financial trouble. Release the members of the Republican Congress who are handcuffed by their commitment to you. Free them to think for themselves and act for themselves."
